The Anubias Nancon (Anubias barteri var. nana 'Nancon') is a compact and attractive plant known for its bright green leaves and suitability for smaller aquariums or intricate aquascapes. It is a hardy plant, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced aquarists. Here is a care guide:
1. Light requirements: This plant thrives under low to moderate lighting. Avoid intense lighting as it can lead to algae growth on the leaves.
2. Water parameters:
- Temperature: It prefers water temperatures between 72-82Β°F (22-28Β°C), making it a good choice for tropical tanks.
- pH level: A pH range of 6.0-7.5 is suitable, though it is adaptable to slightly wider ranges.
- Hardness: It does best in soft to moderately hard water.
3. Substrate and placement:
- Attachment to hard surfaces: Avoid burying the rhizome in the substrate, as this can lead to rot. Instead, attach the plant to rocks, driftwood, or decorations using fishing line or aquarium-safe glue.
- Compact placement: Its small size makes it perfect for the foreground or as a highlight in nano aquariums.
4. Nutrients and CO2:
- Fertilization: Occasional liquid fertilization is sufficient since it absorbs nutrients from the water column. Root tabs are unnecessary unless attached to soil substrates.
- CO2: Supplemental CO2 is not required but can enhance growth and leaf quality.
5. Pruning and maintenance:
- Growth rate: This is a slow-growing plant, so it requires minimal pruning. Remove yellowing or damaged leaves to keep it looking healthy.
- Algae control: Due to its slow growth, algae can accumulate on its leaves. To prevent this, balance the light duration and consider algae-eating tank mates.
6. Propagation:
- Rhizome division: Propagate by dividing the rhizome into sections with a few healthy leaves and roots. Reattach these sections to a new surface for growth.
7. Special considerations:
- Compatibility: This plant is durable and usually ignored by herbivorous fish, making it suitable for community tanks or setups with plant-eating fish.
- Versatility: Its compact size and adaptability make it ideal for low-tech and high-tech aquariums, as well as for use in paludariums.
With proper attachment, balanced lighting, and occasional care, the Anubias Nancon is a beautiful and resilient addition to any aquarium, providing a touch of vibrant greenery to small or detailed aquascapes.
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iβve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
